Welcome to Dream, Draw Create! This blog features art projects for children. These projects have been used in my classes. My lessons allow children to learn about all the elements and principles of art while striving to introduce them to many genres of art.

Thiebauld inspired cakes - Grades 4 and 6

Some samples by my grade 4 through 6 classes. Students drew their cakes on 12" x 18" white drawing paper. Many students as you can see chose a theme for their cake whether it be sports, holidays or nature. Oil pastel was used and emphasis was given to highlighting and shading. The final step was to use colored paper to create a symmetrical pedestal to sit their cake on.

About Me

I have been teaching art for well over 20 years now and have enjoyed every minute of it. Mostly I like to call myself an elementary art teacher but I also teach Primary as well as Middle School students. I teach at Woodland Hill Montessori School which is in upstate New York. I hope my blog inspires you as much as I am inspired by all the wonderful art ed. bloggers out there!
